Block Guide

Storage Cabinets and Shelves

Great for storing kitchen tools, utensils, pots, pans, knives, and other kitchenware, a butcher’s block cart replete with storage cabinets is a must-have for a busy kitchen. The ability to organize your kitchen can garnish focused and efficient cooking, and extra storage space is one of the many perks of a wide range of butcher block islands.

Wheels and Casters

When you want to rearrange your kitchen, a sturdy set of wheels and casters comes in handy. They allow you to move your butcher block out of the way when you’ve got helpers in the kitchen and draw it into the middle when you need to move back and forth from the sink to the workspace. Attractive butcher block islands can also make handsome bar carts when you are entertaining because they allow you to mix cocktails and slice cheese right in your living room.

Durable Surfaces

The key player of a butcher block cart is in its top, which is made up of the most work-friendly, durable surfaces to be found in the kitchen. The classic butcher block is made of assembled wood such as teak, walnut, or hard maple for a sturdy surface on which to dice, chop, and slice all manner of foods. End grain or edge grain styles are carefully crafted to protect your knife blade while keeping a hygienic surface through years of use.

Butcher Block Workcenter

The butcher block workcenter is the perfect size for our small kitchen, a quality wood product of solid construction. We would have rated it 5-star except it was missing a bag of 12 screws and the directions were a bit unclear and hard to follow. We bought new screws and once we got it built, we are very pleased with the end result.

Perfect fit

Solid and well made!

This item has a few sheets of plywood for the shelving and the sides, but everything else is real, solid wood. No particle board! Easy to assemble but it does take a little bit of time. (It took me two and 1/2 hrs) Looks amazing when completed. You will need to purchase butcher block mineral oil to rub it down once assembled. Worth the price.
